P.A.U.L For Brain Recovery

As a charity founded by a brain injury survivor, we have a real understanding of the daily, lifelong challenges faced during recovery. For many, brain injury recovery can be a long, challenging journey with many ups and downs. Some people struggle to maintain their relationships, friendships, and the normal daily routines they had before their injury.

We provide specialist community support sessions that are designed to aid a better recovery and help our service users take positive steps towards reaching their new potential after brain injury.

Our free sessions and activities ultimately help service users to:

• Avoid crisis
• Manage a life-changing disability which can often be ‘invisible’ to others
• Learn to accept that they have a chronic condition
• Feel understood and supported amongst new friends that share a similar lived experience
• Improve their quality of life and reach their new potential

Our sessions aim to reduce social isolation which can be a common consequence of brain injury. The charity provides a safe-place to feel supported by others going through a similar experience, which provides reassurance that they are not alone in how they are feeling. Other benefits include improved health and wellbeing, finding purpose and feeling a sense of belonging.
